[October 2008- A picture of the two of us.]

What are you doing here?

Have you heard from Yoon Se Na?

No, I thought she'd be on her flight by now.

You haven't seen her?

She never showed up at the airport.

Then where could she be right now?

Please call me if you hear from Se Na.

[Yoon Se Na]

This is Yoon Se Na.

What's with the bag?

Were you going on a trip somewhere?

I saw the picture.

Ah... so you went to the bar?

You wanted me to see that, didn't you?

What was your reason for doing that?

Don't you remember me telling you that I was your sister's friend?

Since I knew of the relationship your sister had with Lee Hyun Wook...

I didn't think it was right to let things develop between you two.

Feel free to ask if you have any questions. I can answer them all for you.

No, I don't have any questions.

What I saw was more than enough.

Do you know how worried I've been?

Is something wrong?

Yoon Se Na.

Have you known from the beginning?

Have you known who I was from the beginning?

Answer me.

I asked if you've known who I was from the beginning.

Yes.

Why didn't you tell me?

How could you have done this?

If you told me from the beginning, then I never would've come to like you

and I never would've begged you to like me back

and things never would've ended up this way.

- Se Na. - Don't come near me.

Don't come anywhere near me.

Where in the world did she go?

She doesn't even have anywhere to go.

I know. Where could she have gone?

Yoon Se Na!

Why didn't you show up at the airport? Did something happen?

Is this the only place that she ever has to go to?

Talk to me, okay?

What is it?

Can we talk about this later?

I just want to get some rest.

What's her deal?

Did you and the handsome dog owner have a fight?

Why the sudden change of heart? You were fine as of yesterday.

Okay... we can talk about this later.

Get some rest.

There's my Dal Bong. Was it fun staying with Sung Jin?

Hey, shouldn't you be in Boston with Yoon Se Na right about now?

My reason for going has disappeared.

What's that supposed to mean?

By any chance... did Yoon Se Na find out?

Then what are you going to do now?

I'm just going to stay here.

I was worried about putting Dal Bong on the flight anyway.

Thanks for taking care of him for me.

Lee Hyun Wook.

Are you okay?

How could I be okay?

I'll just be going now.

It's just the two of us again.

Hyun Wook didn't show up at the office?

You know why he didn't show up at the office.

Hyun Wook's still in Seoul.

Why?

He never ended up going.

It seems Se Na has found out the truth.

Just when he was going to leave to prevent her from finding out.

But his efforts were futile.

To be honest, I was hoping that things would work out between those two.

I don't know... but Hyun Wook really likes her.

So what if she's So Eun's sister?

You didn't...

tell Se Na about So Eun, did you?

- Huh? - Ugh, what am I even saying?

I doubt you would've done that.

I'm sure Jae Young is behind all this.

I saw Jae Young not too long ago

and he already knew about Se Na being So Eun's sister.

News travels fast.

Sung Jin told me what happened.

He told me that you never got to leave for the States.

I don't really want to talk about it.

Want something to drink?

That's right... I forgot.

I had already packed up everything, so there's nothing to eat in the house.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Hyun Wook.

What do you have to feel sorry about?

This is all my fault.

What happened between you two... it's all my fault.

I told Jae Young.

I really regretted telling him.

So I did everything I could to stop him from telling her.

But it was no use, and things still ended up this way.

I was going to keep it a secret, but I just wanted to remain by your side.

I told myself to just let it go.

She would've found out sooner or later anyway.

Even if it hadn't been for you...

she still would've found out some other way at some point.

Hyun Wook.

I was afraid of that happening, so I tried to run away.

To a place where no one knew of our story.

Even though I knew that I was being a coward...

I still couldn't stop myself from doing it.

But it still would've been nice if it hadn't happened so soon.

I wish I could've had more time.

You're not...

going to disappear again, are you?

Just like how you disappeared when you lost Yoon So Eun...

you're not going to run away again, are you?

I'm still not sure of what it is that I need to do.

[Shi Woo]

Couldn't you have at least called to let me know you arrived safely?

How are you doing?

How would that even be possible with you gone?

How's the weather over there?

It's very clear and sunny.

Then come to the Logan Airport at two o'clock tomorrow.

What?

I wouldn't have asked if it was bad weather but since it's nice, come greet me.

I'm hopping on a flight to Boston today for an event I've been scheduled for.

I'm not in Boston right now.

Then where are you?

Seoul?

How could you do this to me?

I've been moping around for the past few days because of you.

You should've told me that you never left for Boston.

Sorry I haven't called.

Why didn't you go?

- Something kind of came up. - Like what?

If you're not going to tell me, then can I just assume that it was because of me?

Guess I'm right about it being because of me.

Then when do you want to start working again?

You haven't found a new producer yet?

Why would I look for a new producer when I've got you?

I don't think I'll be able to get back to work right away.

Really?

I can give you a few days.

You seem different.

Your necklace is smiling, so why do you look so depressed?

- Let go. - I had it first.

But I found it first.

I'm the President of the company you belong to.

You're the President when we're at work, but you're just some neighbor here.

Just some mister in the neighborhood.

Why do you always call me 'mister'?

Long time no see.

Yes, you're right.

Have you been well?

Yes, of course.

Bye, Dal Bong.

Her name is Seo Yoon Joo.

She started ten years ago as a trainee

and she's been receiving her training ever since.

Her looks are pretty average

but she transforms into something great when she starts dancing

which gave me the impression that she may actually turn into something worthwhile.

She had garnered all of President Lee's attention as a new promising artist.

- So? - Then one day...

she suddenly disappeared.

There were rumors that she had become pregnant.

Even though it pains me to have to say this...

But I think...

You're saying... that you think it's my husband's child?

Even though I hate to say something about someone else's family matters...

I believe that this is truly an unforgivable act.

This is your chance.

President Wook is no longer coming into the office

and President Lee has no interest in coming back either.

It's like a deserted battlefield.

Okay.

Fortunately, President Wook had his fingers in a lot of different pots...

so the company is in a very stable state.

Yes, what is it?

What are you talking about?

The Chinese have stated they're pulling back their funding by the end of the month.

On top of that, rumors are going around about some inappropriate use of funding

and it seems that our company is the target of those rumors.

When is President Wook coming back?

We need to tell him to come in immediately so that we can manage this crisis.

I don't think he's feeling very well.

Please find out what the reasons are for the basis of those rumors.

If the problem gets any bigger, an investigation could get involved

so find out from everyone just what happened.

Why would a rumor like that be going around all of a sudden?

Yeah.

You have to find out where the rumor got started.

I'll look into that myself. And also...

is Hyun Wook not back in the office yet?

That scoundrel.

Is something going on with him?

No, it's not like that. He'll be back in the office soon.

Don't you trust me?

Yes, of course. I'll let you know if anything happens.

Yes.

Do you by any chance have Yoon Se Na's resume on file?

What did you want to see me about?

It's good to see that you're doing better than I imagined.

What's that supposed to mean?

Ah... I forgot you told me that you've known him for more than ten years.

Then you must've known about my sister as well?

- As well as about me and Hyun Wook. - I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for having tormented you.

I was just worried that both of you would only end up getting hurt.

So I was just doing what I could to stop that from happening.

Did you just come here to apologize for that?

Now I'm the one who feels bad about all the effort you put in.

I'll be leaving now.

By any chance...

are you blaming Hyun Wook for this?

Hyun Wook really struggled after what happened to your sister.

He gave up on his music

and he cut himself off from all his family and friends.

Then he just disappeared.

And he came back after being gone for three years.

That was all because of you, Se Na.

Hyun Wook only wanted to help you.

Because you're Yoon So Eun's little sister.

And because you had talent.

I hope you'll recognize that.

To be honest...

I'm really worried about Hyun Wook.

I'm worried that he'll abandon everything and just disappear again.

I know that I have no right to say this...

but I need your help.

What is it that you want from me?

I want everything to go back to the way things used to be for the both of you.

I know that you're struggling too...

but I need you to be strong.

Because the more you struggle, the more Hyun Wook will struggle, too.

How sincere Hyun Wook is about seeing you succeed and doing well...

I hope you'll be able to recognize that.

Hey, Hyun Wook.

Why does Dal Bong hate me so much?

I'm being very serious about this.

The two days that I had him with me

there were a few times when I thought that he was going to bite me.

Dal Bong will never bite anyone.

No, I'm not exaggerating about this.

But he growled at me to a point where I truly felt afraid for my life.

Are you trying to make me feel bad for asking you to watch him for a couple of days?

No, that's not it.

I'm just trying to tell you how grateful I am.

I'm just grateful that you never left and came back home.

I've realized this more and more as I got older...

but there aren't that many people in this world whom you can call your true friends.

I finally got you back after three long years

and I was worried that you were just going to leave me again.

You should've just stopped me.

And what would that have changed?

Then I wouldn't...

feel as bad for Se Na as I do now.

You're right. That was my mistake.

Okay, you can just blame me for it.

But you know what, friend?

I'm begging you not to blame yourself for this, okay?

If we're going to be honest here

what's there to feel sorry about when you were just loving her as a man?

Am I right?

It wasn't my intention to talk about this.

I guess my plan failed. Let's just drink.

Why are you sitting there like that?

Is it tough for you?

Is this more difficult for you than it is for me?

You gave me an opportunity.

That's how I'm standing where I am right now.

If it hadn't been for you

then I'd still be chasing my dreams of songwriting while struggling day by day.

I'm grateful to you for that. But...

I can't let it end here.

I've only shown two of my songs to the world.

Would you be satisfied with that if it were you?

Did you come this far only to let me stop here?

Just finish what you intended to do in the beginning.

You're the one who told me not to let any opportunities pass me by.

I'm going to see this through to the end.

Until I've become more successful than Seo Jae Young.

My Se Na...

is so strong.

I no longer...

want to lean on you.

Nor do I want to feel disappointed in you anymore either.

But the way you are being right now...

is truly miserable.

You're not going into the office, nor are you working either.

All you ever do is drink.

You always acted like you were the only strong and mature one, but look at you now.

Right from the beginning...

I don't think the role of playing daddy long legs...

really suited me.

I'm not dead.

So you should...

also go back to living...

and live your life like the amazing man that I've always known you to be.

Have you finally reached your decision?

Yeah.

I'll take the job.

Are you back to being the Yoon Se Na that I know?

Then just think only of me starting right now straight through the morning.

I don't think I can do that.

I'll see you at work tomorrow.

Se Na, it doesn't look like you're working at all lately.

I'm going back to work.

Yes, you should definitely get back to working!

Gong Chul is really eyeing that keyboard.

What's this?

Isn't this the handsome dog owner in the picture?

How could he have taken a picture like this with your sister?

Can't be...

So Eun's boyfriend couldn't have been...

No, it's true.

Then... is that why you didn't leave with him?

Yeah.

This is unbelievable.

Handsome dog owner is the bastard who didn't even come to your sister's funeral?

My goodness.

How can this be?

What are you going to do?

Of all the people you fall for, why did he have to be the one?

So what are you going to do now?

Are you...

going to keep seeing him?

You're not, are you? That won't even be right.

Don't worry. I'm trying my best to stay away.

Se Na.

What are we... what are we going to do?

I came in to see President Wook, but I heard he's not in his office?

No, so you can talk to me instead.

Yoon Se Na and I are going to work on my album together.

Why? Are you going to oppose that, too?

No, that's great.

You came.

Yeah.

Have a seat. President Wook isn't here, so I told Director Shin.

Is President Lee not here again?

No.

We're a team now, okay?

But why are you listening to this song?

Just trying to study the melody.

I used to think this song was great

but listening to it now is making me feel bad.

Why?

Did you write this song while thinking of President Wook?

I'd like for you to think of only me while you compose the next song.

That's the only request I have of you.

I'm not a useless old fart.

Even though I've stepped down from my position at the company

if I ever feel that I need to step up and take charge

then I still have the power and authority to stand up and make a firm stance!

No, this is not a threat.

But I'm just telling you the reason why you need to listen to the offer I'm making.

I'll see you in Seoul this weekend since you said you were coming up.

That bastard! Who is he to think he can order me around!

Have you not been taking care of yourself?

I told you that your condition is dangerous.

Okay, I heard you.

I'm trying my best not to work either, but things don't always go the way I plan.

I told you that your chances of recovering from a brain hemorrhage is lower

than that of a stage four cancer patient.

I warned you repeatedly that you can start bleeding into your brain

so that you needed to remain extremely cautious.

- We can't give you anymore guarantees. - Don't worry.

I feel too wronged to just let myself die now.

When there are so many beautiful women in the world...

it would be wrong for me to go just yet.

This isn't a joke.

When I heard you weren't coming into the office

I thought you might've been just making excuses, but maybe I was wrong?

Did you come all the way here just to check and see if you were right?

Seeing how you're able to talk back, you must be just fine.

It's not good for the head of the company to be absent for so long.

If you're done resting, then get back to work.

You should take this opportunity and go back to the office yourself.

- You've been resting longer than I have. - We've already talked about this.

I told you it's been planned from the start for you to take over the company.

CEO Jang is coming in this weekend, and I want you to go greet him.

Even if you were forced into taking the job, you're still the President of the company.

I'll think about it.

This is for you.

Don't refuse it this time. It just may be the last time.

How long has it been since I've shared a drink with my own son?

Is it okay for you to be drinking like this?

If today...

was the last day you had on this earth...

what would you do with it?

Are you drunk already?

I would have a few drinks...

go fishing...

and go hiking in the woods, too.

But I'd like for you to be there with me.

That's what came into my mind.

But...

that's probably asking for too much, right?

Do you remember that time when you were seven years old?

When you and I went fishing together for the very first time.

I remember how you flung your fishing rod so hard

that the fishing hook got caught on my wrist.

Right here on my wrist.

This is the scar that you gave me back then.

You got scared even more than I did, and you threw the biggest crying fit.

Rascal, you were...

You were so cute back then.

Why are you acting like this all of a sudden?

I'm...

sorry.

I'm sorry for not taking care of you after your mom disappeared...

and...

for what happened to So Eun...

I really am... truly so sorry.

I understand all the ways you must have been disappointed in me.

After I earned my money

and after having built up the company...

I looked back and realized that the years had already passed somehow.

I really wanted to be a good dad.

But I totally failed.

I even made you take over the company during those difficult times...

I feel too ashamed to even face you.

Even though I'd love nothing more than to have you be nice to me...

but I realize that I have no right to ask that of you.

I think this wine is getting me drunk.

- It's time for the meeting. - Okay.

But I'm not sure what good it does to hold the meeting by ourselves.

We need the President around to make the decisions so we can take action.

But we can't just sit around and do nothing about it either.

Don't you think we need some action in plan for when President Wook returns to office?

Just when will he be back? Have you heard from him?

Let's just get to the meeting.

President Wook!

- I heard it's an emergency situation? - Yes, and a meeting has been called.

Let's go in.

President Wook!

What took you so long to come?

Please have a seat.

Please explain the situation.

CEO Jang sent news that he's pulling out his investment.

There are rumors that the money is being invested into Seo Jae Young's company.

It seems evident that Jae Young is pulling stunts on his end.

What concerns me is that our people are being swayed.

I've heard that outside forces are coming around to recruit our people away.

The truth is, I also had a recruiting call, asking me to come and work with them.

What?

- Those bastards. - They called me too.

Huh?

What about you, Director Shin?

Those bastards didn't call me.

CEO Jang should be in Seoul right now. Find out where he is and report back to me.

Yes, Sir.

I'll check in with our people first. Shi Woo's new album is most crucial.

- Is he working on the album? - He's working with Yoon Se Na on it.

It would be great if it were another big hit.

Are all the members of Fiestar are here right now, aren't they?

- Yes. - Then I'll check in with them first.

Team Leader Kim, set up the meeting with CEO Jang for me

and Director Shin, I want you to come with me to the meeting.

Okay, let's get moving.

Hyun Wook.

Thanks for coming back.

You should've taken care of things so that I wouldn't have had to come back.

Things are going to progress as planned.

Your album release or debuts will not be delayed because of company matters.

But...

the problem lies within your abilities.

I'm going to be holding a review soon, so work hard in preparation for it.

We can trust you, right?

If you can't trust me, then who else can you trust?

I'm fully aware that all of you have been with us for two to five years each.

I will never be the one to forgo those years of hard work.

I will do whatever I must to get you up on that stage.

You can trust me on that.

Yes!

I heard you were on vacation, but here you are.

They didn't like me being on vacation. How are things going with you?

Me? Hm... things are going very well.

Right?

We'll have to do our best.

I'll be holding a review soon.

- I hope you'll do your best. - You don't have to worry about us.

Let's go.

Oh my, President Wook. Are you back at work?

You're always in my way, aren't you?

The feeling is mutual.

I'll continue to be in your way in the future as well.

You seem to be here on an important mission, so I guess I should give you some privacy?

See you later.

Sit. Please sit.

What is the purpose of taking back your investment all of a sudden?

I don't trust ANA anymore.

Isn't it obvious to move on to a more appropriate company?

So... you're going to work with Seo Jae Young?

Right?

- Maybe. - So... you didn't make a decision yet?

Then give me some time.

Why should I do that?

It'll take some time to go through the process of returning your investment.

If we show better performance within that time

then there's no reason for you to stop working with us.

Right?

So...

is one month enough?

Yes, it is.

Hey, are you here?

Where are you? President Wook is looking for you.

I heard you've been looking for me?

Come sit down.

Your upcoming project is very important to the company.

- You're aware of that too, right? - Of course. Don't worry.

Okay, then I'll leave it in your good hands.

- Miss Yoon Se Na. - Yes?

Do you think that you can complete composing the song by the end of the month?

Yes, I'll give it my best.

It's more important that we get a good song rather than getting it completed quickly.

You've got enough to worry about right now, so no need to worry about us on top of it.

Because we'll take care of things on our own.

We're a great team, and we always seem to be on the same page.

Okay, but let me know if you ever need anything.

As the head of this company, I'll provide you with whatever you need.

Thank you.

What is there to thank him for when he's just doing his job?

We'll be going now.

Okay, you may go.

What's with the glum look on your face?

I just feel a bit pressured knowing how important this project is.

Are you sure that's the only reason?

Which concept do you think we should go with for the new song?

I want to be with you.

I want you to think of only me.

I don't ever want you to hold anyone else in your heart.

A love song with those elements in it?

What's wrong with you these days?

Are you worried about something?

Let's go.

Go where?

You're worried about something, so let's do something about it.

Sitting around here like this isn't going to give us our song.

What is this?

Your drink is still sitting there untouched.

I'm watching my figure.

Since I've already sealed the fanship of all the younger fans with my good looks

my next plan is to steal the hearts of all the older ladies with my six-pack abs.

Hey, shouldn't you be laughing at a joke like that?

I thought that was pretty funny.

Have you always been such a big drinker?

I don't want to be sober right now.

What is it that you're concerned about?

Talk to me. I'll listen to whatever you've got to say.

The truth is...

I'm having trouble coming up with the song.

I want and have to do a good job...

I really, really want to do a good job.

But I just can't think of anything.

I don't know what to do about it.

What's the reason for your writer's block?

Is it because of President Wook?

What's your relationship with him?

A relationship that can never be.

Were you two dating and broke up or something?

Ugh, I think I'm getting drunk. Can you get me some water?

- Why did you have so much to drink? - No kidding.

Are you okay?

Did you have another fight with the handsome dog owner?

Why didn't you go to the States with him? I would be angry too.

He even paid for your expensive plane ticket.

Be quiet!

Hey, I thought you said you were going to get them back together.

- Are you just going to sit back and watch? - Forget it.

You can feed the handsome dog owner to the dogs.

What's gotten into her all of a sudden?

Then has the time come for me to do something?

I think you should stop working for ANA.

I know that continuing to see his face is just tormenting you.

Don't you think that it's better that you don't see him

since you know you can't be with him?

But I still want to see him.

I still want to see him even if it torments me.

You remember me, right? I used to be Se Na's roommate.

Yes, I remember.

The truth is... Se Na really hasn't been herself lately.

She came home drunk as a skunk tonight.

It looks like you've been mad at her since she backed out of going to the States

but you should just make up with her.

It's cool for the guy to apologize first.

Trying to hold onto your pride in front of a girl is just useless.

I'll keep that in mind.

I've brought you something.

It's my profile.

My phone number's on there too.

If you feel uncomfortable about patching things up with Se Na, then give me a call.

Then I'll help you out. Call me if you need, okay?

What brings you by?

I have something that I need to tell you.

What is it?

I think we're going to need more time to finish the song.

- Is there a problem? - That's none of your concern.

I'll take care of it myself.

When a problem arises during a project

isn't it a given that the President should feel concerned about it?

No, that's when you need to concern yourself even less about it.

It seems to me that you're the reason why Yoon Se Na is acting that way.

Even if the song isn't completed on time, don't look for another composer.

Because I'm going to keep my faith in Yoon Se Na until the very end.

Yoon Se Na.

What's that?

I thought it might be helpful for you to check out a concert.

Shi Woo told me that you're having trouble composing the song.

It's not enough for you to worry about. I'm sure it'll come to me soon enough.

But it hasn't come to you yet, so go check it out.

I don't need it.

When the deadline is looming, and you're still not getting anything...

I'm all too aware of how distressing that can be.

So I was thinking that this could be of some help.

Please don't do this.

This is how it everything got started.

Don't be nice to me, don't worry about me, and don't help me.

I'm sorry.

I just thought I was helping as the President of the company.

I'll take care of my own work, so you just worry about doing yours.

I was just worried.

I was worried that I may be the reason...

That's why I don't want you to do anything.

Ugh, seriously...

You have no idea how hard I'm trying right now.

Please just leave me alone.

Just let her go now.
